I need a new exhaust to pass the RWC on my DA9.

I am from the UK so not sure if you need a cat on the car to pass? As a new 'OE' system will be over $500, where as the system below is $300.

I know the quality won't be great, but if it will pass the RWC I may as well....?

Some places are strict, they'll be put off by the large canon, even if there's a silencer to keep the noise down.
I'm sure a cat is needed.
Get a cheapo exhaust from the wreckers.. Cat, cat back and muffler.
The eBay exhaust would cost you $300 inc shipping and will not guarantee a pass.

Ok thanks.
I've tried all the local breakers around Melbourne and can't find anything.

88-91 civic 4 door exhaust is a close fit, just need to re weld hangers to different spots and tips will sit slightly to the left. You might have to remove rear sway too but it will get you through a roadworthy. This is for the axle-back, dunno about cat and mid section

Yeah I know an 4G sedan box will fit with light mods, but I can't find any of them either.
I might see how much a custom rear box is....
